Welcome to the web home of North Western Pennsylvania Beekeepers Association - NWPBA! Beek﻿eeping can be a profitable sideline or a full time occupation. Almost anyone can keep bees. You may want to keep bees for delicious fresh honey they produce, for the benefits of their valuable services as pollinators, or perhaps just for the fun of learning more about one of nature's most interesting insect.

Beekeeping is generally considered a minor industry in Pennsylvania, but because of it's interrelationship with other phases of agriculture, it is much more important.
